Method

  1. 1

    Squeeze the sausage meat from the skins and brown in a large oven-safe pot, breaking it into chunks.

  2. 2

    Add the diced onion and cook for 5 minutes, then stir in the crushed garlic and oregano.

  3. 3

    Pour in the chopped tomatoes and 400ml water. Bring to the boil, add the penne and stir well.

  4. 4

    Cover and simmer for 12 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until the pasta is just cooked and the sauce has thickened.

  5. 5

    Stir in the creme fraiche, scatter over the cheddar and grill for 5 minutes until golden and bubbling.
